Notes and Editorial Reviews

As this recital of songs by Verdi, Donizetti, Bellini, Rossini and Schubert demonstrates, Brownlee has a beautiful, blooming voice, effortlessly precise and natural. His phrases stretch into long, seamless musical sentences. At his best -- in, for example, Bellini's "Torna, vezzosa Fillide" -- he sings with dramatic urgency and presence.
